Hey guys,

The documentation states that the return types on the x86
__builtin_ia32_cmp*s builtins are integer vectors. This is
inconsistent with the source. These builtins actually return floating
point vectors. Here is a small patch to update the documentation.

I also suggest you can also provide a ChangeLog entry.

Thanks, Jason and Uros. Here is a proposed ChangeLog entry. Just
FYI... this is new to me, so perhaps I am missing something. I have
also re-attached the patch for your convenience.
